My most important values include authenticity, gratitude, mindfulness, acceptance, loving-kindness, self-growth and increasing self-awareness/consciousness.
I have over 25 years experience helping people with depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues. I provide compassionate, strengths-based, individualized care with day time, evening and weekend appointments available. Passion for families, parents and the LGBTQ+ population has fueled my life's work to help people get through difficult times or just explore how to improve on what is already working. Becoming our best selves takes work; work that I have been doing in my own life and with others for decades.

The unexpected turns in life bring us an opportunity to stop and work on ourselves, so that we can be better equipped to live a healthy, happier & productive life! I have been active in the counseling community for 35 years and have learned how to help my clients identify "root issues and causes" . It is helpful to tap into the fullness of the Mind-Body-Spirit connection to impact the problems, including organically based psychological problems. Ancient literature tells us that there is wisdom in seeking counsel - which dovetails nicely with my belief that we are "not to do life alone", but in community.

Each of us encounters moments when life leaves us feeling overwhelmed and underprepared. When we experience these challenges, it's common for sadness, worry, and conflict to leave us emotionally drained or off-balance. We may even find ourselves focusing more on the past or in the future than we are on the present moment. It is my privilege as a counselor to help clients explore these challenges, develop personal, relationship, and wellness goals, prepare for obstacles that may get in the way of meaningful change, and begin to mindfully recommit to living their best life possible.

Taking the first steps for counseling can seem overwhelming. Sometimes life can be bombarded with anxiety, stressors, depression, or life transitions. It could be marriage difficulties or communication or infidelity traumas that need to be addressed. Or perhaps feeling disconnected from yourself and others due to PTSD. Perhaps it is a teenager wanting to stop self-harming and learn better ways to regulate feelings. Trauma and attachment issues can show up in many ways. Working through difficulties can bring hope empowerment connectedness and a sense of freedom in personal social spiritual areas of one's life.

How does acceptance and commitment therapy work?

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages a person to listen to their self-talk. A person’s inner dialog can be indicative of how they treat themselves. ACT also encourages self-compassion; this can lead to a better understanding of negative thought patterns and emotional states. This understanding can then lead the individual to needed behavior change.

What are the goals of acceptance and commitment therapy?

The goal of acceptance and commitment is to expand a person’s psychological flexibility, a trait that encourages an individual to live in the present moment and to accept all their thoughts, feelings, and emotions, even ones that are difficult such as sadness and anxiety. In ACT, this acceptance is congruent with the individual’s values and beliefs.

Does acceptance and commitment therapy work for depression?

Acceptance and commitment therapy is effective for depression because it allows the individual to view their discomfort and suffering differently. Depressive feelings about relationship heartaches, for example, are a part of life. A despondent person learns to let go of their struggles and instead view their painful thoughts and feelings with compassion. This will lead the individual toward positive change.

How long are people typically in acceptance and commitment therapy?

A typical acceptance and commitment therapy session is 50 minutes long with one session per week. Treatment for common problems such as anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties can last between eight weeks to four months. However, more severe cases may require more than one session a week and/or a longer time frame for treatment.
